Snake Falls is a locality in Kenora, Ontario, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Snake Falls is located at 50.8322°N, 93.4630°W.

Snake Falls rests at the edge of a vast, ancient boreal forest, where the land folds and dips in a perpetual embrace with the Canadian Shield. It lies 26.8 km north-west of Ear Falls, ON (from Ear Falls, ON: bearing 324°T), and is situated 32.8 km south-east of Red Lake. Granite outcrops, worn smooth by millennia of wind and ice, punctuate the dense tapestry of spruce, pine, and trembling aspen, their branches often heavy with the damp breath of the surrounding waterways. The air here carries a persistent, clean scent of resin and earth, a constant reminder of the wildness that presses in, even on the fringes of human habitation. Sunlight, when it breaks through the thick canopy, often filters down in shafts of pale gold, illuminating the rust-coloured lichens clinging to the rocks and the occasional flash of iridescent dragonfly wings over the slow-moving, tea-coloured waters that give the place its name. The economic pulse of Snake Falls has long been tied to the rich bounty of its surroundings, a heritage carved out by generations of loggers and trappers who navigated these very waters. The echoes of that past linger in the weathered facades of the few buildings that cluster near the riverbank, a quiet testament to resilience. While large-scale logging operations have receded, the spirit of self-sufficiency and connection to the land remains, evident in the small-scale fishing enterprises and the artisanal crafts that find their way to local markets. The nearby waterways, once highways for industry, now serve as arteries for recreation, drawing visitors who seek the solitude and rugged beauty that Snake Falls so readily offers.
